I am a Muslim with stories to share. And I enjoy expressing my reflections on faith, life, and spirituality. But my words had no community.

So I started ‘Real-Life Muslim Tales.’

Real-Life Muslim Tales in a nutshell:

🌟 A Safe Haven

A safe haven where your spiritual reflections have a community. You are free to share your heartfelt and heart-born stories and experiences.

📖 Personal

No regurgitated information or generic advice. Instead, we are all about your unique perspective. Why are you the one telling this story? What did you learn? What are you still searching answers for?

🎨 Creative

Express yourself through poetry or captivating tales in stories six minutes or less. Longer writing will be considered on occasion.

🌍 Real-Life Experiences

Real-Life Muslim Tales is open to stories that encompass a myriad of what a Muslim goes through. Whether it is heartfelt connections with your faith, mental health struggles, cultural identity, relationships, career, parenting, health, financial struggles, social pressures, or personal growth — this is your canvas.

📜 Storytelling Through Wisdom

Drawing inspiration from the Quran and Hadith, we encourage you to infuse your tales with the timeless wisdom found in our faith.

🌱 Source of Connection

Real-Life Muslim Tales is a community of real Muslims with authentic narratives. You will contribute to a rich tapestry of experiences that bring us all closer.

🕌 For Young Muslims, by Young Muslims

Young is used lightly here! Our gentle voice caters to young Muslims. Those of us who often feel like we have no ground beneath our feet. Your story is valued here.
